This recipe is an oldie, but goodie! I had a big zucchini that needed using up and I was sooo in the mood for these yummy (and guiltless) zucchini pizza bites!! A perfect way to use up all the zucchini in your garden and satisfy your craving for pizza in a low-carb way.

I make these all the time, sometimes for lunch or as snack. Even my husband thinks they are pretty darn good! They also happen to be gluten-free, and perfect for meatless Mondays. Of course, you could add some leftover sausage, pepperoni, basil, or whatever you like on your pizza. If you haven't tried these yet, they are a must while zucchini is in season!

Note: My zucchini was very large, if your zucchini is smaller, you can cut them on an angle for large ovals.

Cut zucchini about 1/4 inch thick. Spray both side lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil or grill the zucchini for about 2 minute on each side. Top with sauce and cheese and broil for an additional minute or two. (Careful not to burn cheese)

These look so delicious! Just a question, is the nutritional info correct? I couldn't imagine it being that much, and then I noticed that it is the exact same info as the grape dessert below. Just wondering, thanks!

Gina! Made these last night, and LOVE 'EM! So easy and the whole family was loving them. I also shared the recipe with my WW meeting this morning! They are all very excited too! Thanks for giving us a way to get our pizza fix! :D

These are so tasty! I made them tonight as a dinner with my 4 year old. We added turkey pepperoni and fresh tomatoes. Not only was it fun, both she and my 1 year old gobbled them up! Yum! LOVE your website! I will say I had a lot more than 4...

Excellent recipe! My 9 year old son and I made this one for lunch and we both LOVED it - DELICIOUS!! I've been doing WW for 5 months now and was beginning to get in a 'rut'...I discovered your blog - THANK YOU SO MUCH!! And it's given me some new motivation with all these fabulous recipes w/beautiful photography. You ROCK, Gina!!

I made these last night when a friend brought over a mutant zucchini!!! The first round was a little crunchy but very good still, the second round got a little overcooked (oops I forgot them in the broiler) and tasted even better!!!! Vive la zucchini!!!!

I am SO glad I found this site! It's so hard to cook on weight watchers without recipes. It's a pain in the butt to do the math for recipes I already have just to figure out which would be do-able and to figure out servings? Old family recipes have nothing about servings! haha

Either way I just made these for lunch and I love them! They took a little getting used to, but definitely curbed my craving for pizza and I plan on doing them again. Thank you :-). My Zucchinis were small to the other ingrediants yielded around 8 slices!

You're welcome Meredith! I know what you mean, It's harder for me since I'm coming up with new stuff all the time so I'm always crossing my fingers I stay within my points come dinnertime. These are a great snack!

These were AMAZING!!!!! Someone pointed me to your site and not only have I planned my entire weeks dinners, I had no idea what I was going to eat for lunch today. Saw this recipe, just happen to have all ingredients, made them and loved them! Thank you so much!

My friend posted a link on facebook and im always excited about new recipes, especially ones with diet in mind!I made these pizzas last night and im IN LOVE!!! instead of pizza sauce i just used chopped tomato and it was just FABULOUS! im hooked on this snack and your blog! Thank You

i am amazed and so happy that my husband LOVES these!! when i was making them, he was like "so, there's no bread and no meat...it is NOT pizza!" and i told him just to trust me- i had made them for myself once before! he ate them and absolutely loved them!! thanks so much for your great recipes! it makes getting my husband to eat more veggies SO much easier!

I tried making these a couple of nights ago. I had gotten the recipe from another site. That site said to cook for 7 minutes on each side (I used a broiler). Everything else was the same as your recipe. They smelled delish and looked delish, but the texture wasn't delish :-( . The skin was too rubbery and hard to bite through. Did I do something wrong? Was 7 minutes too long on each side?

I made these for a snack today and the turkey meatballs for dinner. Both were wonderful and the kids loved them. I did use eggplant since the grocery store just had tiny zucchini. I cooked it a little longer

You did it again! Just had the leftovers for lunch and they're even good re-heated! My son stuffed 2 in his mouth at once, thinking I wasn't looking and my husband saw my leftovers and asked, "Why do YOU get to eat the leftovers?" LOL. Because I made them! LOL

I just bought two gorgeous zucchini today, but now that I've seen this recipe, I think I'm gonna need to buy a whole bunch more! Looks outstanding, and I love that each member of the family can customize some with their own toppings!

I know this recipe is ages old, but I just HAVE to comment. The other night, my family ordered pizza for dinner. My plan was to eat 1 slice of pizza and then fill up on these bites. The bites were SO incredibly delicious and filling that I was able to pass on the regular pizza. I have never passed on regular pizza in my entire life. I seriously LOVE these bites and can't thank you enough for your recipes and this blog. You are the best!

yum! Had these tonight (with some added Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top) - delicious! Admittedly, we are a family of veggie lovers, but my husband, my six year old, my one year old and I all agree that this recipe is a keeper!

I've been meaning to try these for months and just made them today. So, so good! The family had pizza last night (I had fish!) and that pizza box was taunting me in the fridge....until I remembered that zucchini I just bought yesterday. :-) This more than satisfied my pizza craving, and with a side salad I'm still feeling full 6 hours later. Making a trip to the store after work to pick up some more zuchs!
